[quote="ComeOnYouUll":3rr0fwxg]Correct. I totally get why they would set the bar as high as possible so they can later claim we underperformed but a good run out and no injuries matters more than the margin of victory. Points difference doesn't matter in the Cup.[/quote:3rr0fwxg] That's exactly what they're doing, if we only win by 30-40 they can come on here and say well we beat proper York by more than you did amateur York blah blah blah it's so predictable.

[quote="Mild Rover":17ke1c8a]I agree it isn’t very meaningful. It’s just a curiosity. If it is 100+, well it is pros vs amateurs, maybe let’s not do this again next year, but check to see if there are any records that need updating. If everything that could go wrong (sickness bug, very rusty, atrocious weather, bomb numerous chances, man sent off) goes wrong then at least you have got lots of bad luck out the way in a game you couldn’t lose. Tomlinson could probably spin a triumph in adversity narrative out of it. That’s the point really - we all get to build our own stories out the same set of events. This is just our rough notepad for establishing our outlines.[/quote:17ke1c8a] As someone said above Hull are in a no win situation today (not literally but a loss would probably be the biggest upset in the history of modern RL). Hopefully for us nothing goes wrong and we can get through with no dramas but if there were you lot would have a good laugh, as would we if the roles were reversed. I'll just take a low drama routine win and get them prepared for the trip to France (although nothing is ever drama free with Hull fc)
